What Does Reality Really Mean?

About the same time, I also got "What's really real?" and "What does reality mean to you?"

Honestly, I'm baffled by the idea that the answer to this question is somehow subjected. I'm baffled by the idea that people sit around speculating about whether what they're experiencing is really more real or really less real than other potential realities occurring in their minds or parallel universes or as hypothetical futures.

Look around. Those dirty dishes waiting for you are real. So is the fact that it's entirely within your power to change the fact that there are dirty dishes waiting for you. The sun shining down on you is real, the taste of that peach you just pulled off a tree is real, your relationships are real (even though they may not be exactly what you think they are).

We don't have our own personal, individualized realities. What you see is what there is. Live in it. It's really not so bad.
